Tips

Epee Sharkey

October 16, 2023

This plaque seems (I am guessing as not speaking Serbo-Croatian) to mark the restoration of the Krajlev Park by the Azerbaijan government as a gesture of friendship towards Montenegro.

Inside this pleasant park the theme of Montegrin-Azeri friendship is re-inforced by the pairing of 2 busts, one of Bozidar Vukovic (b. 1460 near Podgorica - d. 1540, Venice). A successful businessman in Venice, he was enormously proud of his roots and usually signed himself Bozidar Vukovic Podgoricanin (i.e. BV, citizen of Podgorica). His success in business allowed him to invest in the novel technology of the printing press, and he focused on the production in Cyrillic script Serbo-Croatian of devotional works (Psalters, Books of Service) and Almanacks for travellers.

The other bust is of an Azeri: Husein Dzavid (usually anglicised as Huseyn Javid and apparently Hüseyn Cavid in Azerbaijani) described as a great poet and dramatist who wasa notable Azeri, writer of the early 20th Century. Sadly purged by Stalin as a counter-revolutionary in 1937, soon after dying in exile in Siberia in 1941.
